This one confused me for a bit. 

The site root tansforms all the URLs in its folder, even the management 
interface ones. Thus, as Dieter points out, the cookie which implements the 
'cut' function will be set as coming from the domain that your siteroot is 
set to. So, when you visit a different folder, you are effectively visiting a 
different domain, and consequently your browser doesn't make the original 
cookie with the 'cut' information available. Therefore, it appears to zope as 
if there's nothing on the clipboard.

Don't know if that makes it any clearer. 

I'm not sure if the 8080 thing will work, but you can always get around it by 
using the 'export' button instead.
